A Fortnight of my Weird-Ass Christmas Playlist
I read in some book that a fortnight is two weeks. Or three. Whatever. The point is that it's currently a fortnight until I go home, and right now the only thing getting me through this melancholy finals season is my joyful playlist for Christmas season. But I'm not like all those other Catholic gals with their traditional Christmas music from car radios and "Mariah Carey "“ All I want for Christmas is You" Pandora stations. No. I'm a Jew. I had to go by other means to get my Christmas music fix. Obscure movies, weird Spanish station carols, I downloaded it all. And I came up with a fortnight of weird ass Christmas songs that just might make you feel jolly. So kick your feet back, burn your flashcards, and drunkenly sext your roommate! That's what the holidays are for.

Studying for Finals: I don’t .gif a Sh*t
It’s time for the last adderall binge push. One more round of finals season, and my 16 years of taking tests and writing papers will be over. After 16 years of schoolwork – yes I’m including elementary school, because multiplication tables were fucking hard – I should have finals studying down to a science. Honestly,... MORE »
The Poop Scoop
Anyone with roommates knows the frustration of the A.M. Bathroom Shuffle. That smelly game of musical chairs where you want to take time for your morning ablutions, but you want to avoid the stench of the morning deuce that preceded yours. Sometimes, you lose this game. Sometimes, you have to brave the wild and lawless... MORE »
If Disney Princesses Went to College
When the ladies of Disney were actually alive, a college degree was superfluous. I’m using the word superfluous because, unlike Ariel, I didn’t get married to a prince at 16 and I’m going to need to know big words to get a job. It’s not like I want to be a gold-digging, amphibious ho– but I’m just a little... MORE »

A Fortnight of my Weird-Ass Christmas Playlist Pt. 5
Today I took two finals. Also, Kim Jon Il died. These events are unrelated, but this song will probably be enjoyed by both students in need of post-final christmas cheer, and deceased dictators. That’s all I have to say. I’m gonna study for another final now. #stabmeintheface. MORE »
A Fortnight of my Weird-Ass Christmas Playlist Pt. 4
Today, whilst working in the lovely new Science and Engineering Library with the overpriced-yet-delicious coffee, I didn’t see any mistletoe. I didn’t see any jolly bearded men with rosy cheeks and jiggly tummies. I didn’t see softly glowing lights, and gifts wrapped in festive and environmentally-unfriendly paper. I did see vomit, and poop, in the... MORE »
A Fortnight of my Weird-Ass Christmas Playlist Pt. 3
I’m in class right now. Would I rather be administering an enema to Santa after he ate all his Christmas cookies? Would I rather give Mrs. Claus a brazilian bikini wax? You decide. (Hint: Yes. Yes. A thousand times yes) Enjoy this jingle while you cry into a textbook! MORE »

Multitasking in College
As a college student in the big city of New York, my life is a blur. Not because I am constantly drunk, but because I am so busy that each day never seems to slow down. With all of my Hulu watching and class skipping, how will I ever get enough minutes for dinner cooking,... MORE »
Senior Fund Gifts I Would Actually Donate To…
I’m no math major, but I’m pretty sure college is expensive. After four years of paying for alcohol food, and for drugs dorms, and for hookers books, I am pretty much done giving my hard earned bucks to this institution. Instead of understanding my grievances, the school is asking that I shell out even more... MORE »
There are not enough midgets in Europe: And other lessons I learned on my Spring Break jaunt across the Pond
I’m not normally extravagant or glamorous. I steal packets of honey from coffee shops and eat them as a “balanced meal” on a regular basis. So my decision to spend my hard-earned money on an 11 day trek through Europe surprised even me. But spend it I did. While it was my Spring Break, and... MORE »
Brackets that are Actually Worth Making
I love brackets. They are the parentheses’ ugly cousin. [They are the boxy, Khloe Kardashian to the sumptuous curves of the Kim Kardashian-like parenthesis) Want to know what bracket I’m not so keen on? The March Madness bracket. I grew up with the Lakers and the Clippers, people. I’ve seen professionals fight and whine like... MORE »
